Summary/Abstract: The period of dictatorial regimes from the 20th century in Romania was prefaced by Goga-Cuza Government. Although he has been at the forefront of the country no more than two months, lacking popularity and brought to power only as a result of the actions of King Charles II, that Government was illustrated by a virulent antisemitic policy. From the first days were taking measures against newspapers considered “Jewish”, like Adevărul, Dimineața and Lupta, which were banned, but also against journalists. The culmination of this policy was the attempt to revise the law of citizenship for Jews who were Romanian citizens after 1918. Under pressure from international circles, King Carol II dismissed the Government and replaced it in accordance with its plans with a personal regime. Goga-Cuza Government can be considered as a preface to the tragic periode of Holocaust that followed in the years of World War II.
